Nor should I sink into my sadness
Why do I seek this madness
That pushes me into hating reality

I should let go of the agony
And leave my ruined house of Elis
Where I can find harmony
In the love I lack

Aaaahhh, I'm sick
No blue skies or sunny trips
No virgin ears to hear obscene lips
No happy thoughts to watch goodness slip

I'm Elis, ruined and free
I should let go but this is me
I love my sadness and apathy
I love the madness that pushes me
Into hating everything

I should not seethe in my apathy
Nor should I sink into my sadness
Why do I seek this madness
That pushes me into hating reality

I should let go of the agony
And leave my ruined house of Elis
Where I can find harmony
In the love I lack

Aaaahhh, I'm sick
No blue skies or sunny trips
No virgin ears to hear obscene lips
No happy thoughts to watch goodness slip

I'm Elis, ruined and free
I should let go but this is me
I love my sadness and apathy
I love the madness that pushes me
Into hating everything

This was deep and truthful. I felt that you did a good job expressing yourself and what you feel. This was a good poem. I can in relate in ways that I hate my pain but I don't want it to be gone. I need it. It is me. You did a really great job.

Take care
Christina

can you believe I read and understood. Sometimes things we dont want to let go. I am sorry you are feeling how you are feeling. And im sorry that I have somehow pushed you into the middle of my feelings. I will see you soon enough then you will be happy, if only for a moment

Nosce te ipsum

(know thyself)

and you certainly do and are revelling in this fact, whether or not
it is the "accepted" norm. To heck with the norm, I say! Accepting
one's self is a profoundly liberating task, but to accept your
limitations and in fact, embrace them .. now THAT is truly
beautiful. The madness and apathy may not always exist, but
for now, a certain sanity is felt when we accept who we are.

Well crafted!

My dearest heart of love...as much as you think you chose any madness or sadness..I know you are an ultimate loving being and so this write is great as it will never be anything but a small dark piece of you that is....your reality is wonderful, your compassion devine.
Whatever depth we plunge..ner ...to be to deep we weep.Thy tears will err be tears of joy.
